For my 1st visit to the Denver area, this couldn't have been more appropriate. As I walked around the grounds on the first morning, my thoughts were of what sort of construction business the owners must have been in, as the interior finishes gave clues, but the exterior surroundings and the stone landscaping were clearly done with equipment that is ordinarily found on project sites, rather than home improvement centers. It was shortly afterward that I read the intro bios of the family members and learned that they were involved in the concrete business, as well as real estate. Bingo. In spite of the proximity to surrounding homes, I slept like a baby in the very comfy beds and relaxed with coffee in the spacious rooms or on the wrap-around upper deck overlooking the property. Within three minutes, our little group was on the highway to the Red Rocks Amphitheater, or just out for a meal. My 1st Denver visit was a bit of the suburb developments of the Seventies/ Eighties and the foresight of the early philanthropy that created the Garden of the Gods and the greatest amphitheater I've ever experienced.
